How to do PowerPoint formatting

Creating a presentation in PowerPoint requires knowing more than just how to insert text or a picture onto a slide. 

In order to know how to effectively format in PowerPoint, you need to understand how PowerPoint works and what impacts the way the presentation slides look.

1. Create a PowerPoint template that has all the correct elements to ensure your brand colours, fonts and design requirements are consistent throughout your presentation.
    
2. Ensure that you have selected the correct theme colours in your slide master so that your colour pallet is easily adaptable as your slide master evolves.
